Chapter 35: Misunderstanding

According to the address given by Gao Lanna, the two of them came to a little-known side street in City A, the street was relatively narrow, so they parked their cars in a parking space at the intersection and walked over to find someone.

Gao Lanna told Du Juan on the phone before that she was working in a barber shop, and when she got there, Du Juan and Tang Hongye saw that the scale of the store was not small, and it looked like the grade was not bad.

"What's the matter with her? I'm the store manager here, and she's been absent from work several times this month for no reason. After feeling that there was no business to do, the store manager was also a little uncaring about people, "We are very busy here today, you can see for yourself, there are many people, I don't dare to let people out casually, I have to say hello to the boss." ”

"Otherwise, you call someone out for us first, and if we can solve it here, we won't take anyone away." Tang Hongye said to the store manager that he planned to see Gao Lanna first. He and Du Juan tacitly did not explain their identities to the store manager, for fear that when others did not know the truth, they heard that the police had come to Gao Lanna to investigate, and they would use false rumors to have a bad impact on Gao Lanna.

The store manager hesitated for a moment and agreed, but he was still a little uneasy, and when he was about to go to find someone, he said: "I don't ask you about anything with her, but it can't affect our normal business, if you disturb our other customers here, that's not good, I can only let you leave quickly." ”

Tang Hongye agreed very happily, although the store manager was still not very relieved, but he still turned around to the back to help find someone, Tang Hongye and Du Juan were waiting at the door, and they couldn't help but be a little curious, why would a Gao Lanna make the store manager so nervous, could it be that she is very important to the store, or is there something wrong with her personality?

It happened that there was a little girl in the cash register at the door, who looked to be in her early twenties, and Tang Hongye glanced at this side when he was talking to the store manager, and the curiosity on his face was about to be unable to hide, so Tang Hongye took advantage of her curiosity, and when the store manager walked away, there was no one at the cash register, so he came to him, smiled at the little girl, and asked: "Let me ask you, how long has Gao Lanna been in your store?" What are you doing? Are you familiar with her? ”

"I don't know her very well, aren't you her friends? Why don't you even know what she does? The little girl at the cashier desk was quite willing to talk to Tang Hongye, "She was the head of our store to do chores, originally to be an apprentice, but I don't know if she was too stupid or mentally something, anyway, no one wanted to take her, and then let her go to the back to wash her hair, and quarreled with customers every once in a while, so she could only do chores, wash towels, sweep the floor or something, anyway, I didn't dare to do the work with the guests." ”

As soon as the little girl said this, Tang Hongye knew it in his heart, and this Gao Lanna in the barbershop didn't seem to be an important position that couldn't be done without her, so if it was necessary for a while, it was still very feasible to take her out to talk.

"Who the hell are you?" The little girl at the cash register asked with some curiosity.

Tang Hongye smiled at her and said, "We are familiar with a friend of hers, so let's ask her about something." ”

"Yo! Does she have friends? The little girl at the cash register pouted in surprise, "I really didn't expect it!" I thought that she had such a weird personality that she couldn't get along with anyone, so she couldn't have any friends! I've been working with her here for almost a year now, and I haven't seen anyone come to her! You two are the first one! ”

"Friends are not expensive, quality is more important." Tang Hongye smiled back at her, responded in vain, glanced at it again, and saw that the store manager hadn't come back yet, so he took the opportunity to ask again, "Speaking of which, since Gao Lanna is here and can't do anything very well, why didn't your boss fire her?" What are you doing with it? ”

"Who knows! If I were the boss, she would have gone home long ago! It's sunny and rainy all day long, weird, and with her here, the atmosphere of the whole store is affected. The little girl couldn't say why, "Maybe it's because of her low salary, I guessed, anyway, she can't make much money a month, and she is absent from work and asks for leave at every turn, and it's good to deduct the money and not do day work, but it's also a misfortune that she is a handyman, otherwise she may delay a lot of things!" ”

As he spoke, the store manager came back, followed by a girl in her twenties, not short, thin, wearing the same denim blue jumpsuit in the store, with black hair tied back her head, a plain appearance, a plain face, a slightly pale complexion, looking quiet and honest.

"Gao Lanna, these two people are your friends, right? Hurry up and talk to them, take care of your personal affairs, don't delay too long. The store manager brought the girl to Du Juan and Tang Hongye, and told her uneasily, "Oh, also, speak quietly, don't make a loud noise, which will affect the customers in the store." ”

Gao Lanna ignored him, as if she hadn't heard his words at all, and the store manager was obviously used to Gao Lanna's attitude, so he didn't expect a response after speaking, and walked away on his own.

Gao Lanna silently waited for him to leave, then raised her eyelids, looked at Tang Hongye and then at Du Juan, and asked Du Juan, "Are you the one who called me before?" ”

Du Juan nodded at her: "Yes, it's my call, can you talk to us about Leng Zhiqiang?" ”

After Gao Lanna heard Du Juan's inquiry, she didn't say anything immediately, her eyes fell on Du Juan's face, and she looked at her carefully, not knowing what she was speculating, and her eyes gradually cooled down in the process of looking, and she was a little wary, and only nodded after a while, and said to Du Juan: "What do you want to talk to me about?" ”

The cuckoo was not sluggish, she could clearly feel that Gao Lanna seemed to have some kind of hostility towards her, which she didn't feel on the phone just now, but she didn't move silently, and smiled at Gao Lanna: "Let's go outside the door and talk, blocking the door here may affect the normal work of your side." ”

When Gao Lanna heard her say this, she seemed to know everything, nodded, opened the door and walked out, and had no intention of stopping at all, Du Juan and Tang Hongye were a little surprised, and hurriedly pulled their legs to catch up.

"Where are you going?" The cuckoo asked her, "Your store manager said that you can't be absent from work for no reason, and you leave without saying a word like this, won't it affect your work?" ”

Gao Lanna suddenly stopped, frowned and asked Du Juan impatiently: "Do you want to talk to me about Leng Zhiqiang or don't you want to?" If you want to, let's find a place to talk, if you don't want to, I'll go back, what should you do! Don't talk to me about meaningless nonsense, don't waste my time! ”

Du Juan was taken aback by her sudden excitement, Tang Hongye's brows also furrowed, and before he could speak, Gao Lanna suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed at him: "You shut your mouth!" Isn't it just to act as a flower messenger today? I warn you, things between women have nothing to do with you, you can follow if you want, keep your mouth shut for me, don't be ready to pull any bias! ”

"Anyway, we have to find a suitable place to sit down and talk, right? Walking all over the street like this, how can you talk well? The cuckoo ignored her attitude for the time being, and planned to set the place for the conversation first, "Otherwise, have you eaten?" If you haven't eaten yet, let's have a meal together, you should be familiar with this neighborhood, you can choose the place, I'll treat you. What do you think? ”

"You're in for a treat, you're paying?" Gao Lanna looked at the cuckoo suspiciously, "Don't fool me, I didn't bring any money!" ”

The cuckoo smiled and shook his head at her: "Don't lie, do what you say, I'll treat you, you choose the place." ”

"That's what you said, don't regret it then!" Gao Lanna agreed as if angry, "Then you guys come with me, I know a restaurant is very good, I want to eat there!" ”

After that, she rushed to the front, followed by Du Juan and Tang Hongye.

Tang Hongye took advantage of Gao Lanna to walk out for a distance, leaned over to Du Juan's ear and whispered, "Does she not know that the two of us are police officers from the Public Security Bureau?" Why do I feel that my attitude is not quite right? ”

Du Juan nodded and whispered to him: "When I called before, I just asked her if she knew Leng Zhiqiang, and she asked me to come to her, and I didn't have time to tell her my identity and purpose when there was anything to talk to." I saw that she was so positive, so I didn't say anything, I wanted to see what was going on with her. ”

"Oh, then I understand, let's wait and see." Tang Hongye was still a little uneasy, "But then again, you better be careful, she may indeed have some problems here." ”

As he spoke, he tapped his index and middle fingers twice towards his temples.

The cuckoo didn't make a sound, signaled Tang Hongye, and the two of them quickened their pace and followed.

Gao Lanna took the two of them to the door of a restaurant, which seemed to be quite decorated, Gao Lanna stood at the door and raised her eyebrows at the cuckoo quite provocatively, and then walked in directly. The cuckoo sniffed at the door, the smell of the vegetables wafting out of the restaurant was still very attractive, it seemed that this was not the kind of restaurant that had nothing to show for it, so he calmly followed in.

Gao Lanna doesn't look like it's the first time to come to this restaurant, as soon as she enters, she is familiar with the way and asks the waiter to open a small private room for them, the waiter reports a private room name to her, she is familiar with the way to find it, and after sitting down, she is not polite to the cuckoo, pick up the menu and order a few dishes without hesitation, each dish is a very laborious type, the price is naturally not cheap, the cuckoo glanced at the price on the menu, fortunately, it is within the range of his own bearing, It's just a little more extravagant than the usual small fights.

Gao Lanna ordered six dishes and one soup by herself, and the waiter in the middle reminded her that she didn't need to order, and the three of them couldn't finish it at all, but she still insisted on making a choice, and then Du Juan and Tang Hongye both felt that there was no need to continue ordering, so they directly returned the menu to the waiter and asked her to withdraw it.

After ordering, Gao Lanna began to bow her head and play with her mobile phone, very focused, Cuckoo wanted to talk to her several times, she said that she didn't want to say anything before the dish was served, and Cuckoo had to give up.

Fortunately, the speed of serving food in this restaurant is still very fast, and after a while, the dishes are all served, Gao Lanna is not in a hurry to eat, just look at the dishes on the table, and wait until the waiter says that the dishes are all ready, retreat, and close the door of the private room, Gao Lanna put her mobile phone aside and sat up straight.

"Look at it, every one of these dishes on the table now is Leng Zhiqiang's favorite food." She lifted her chin and glared at the cuckoo out of the corner of her eye, "Do you know any of this?" Leng Zhiqiang is easy to say, he will never be wronged by what he eats, do you know this? In addition to these, do you know what kind of clothes Leng Zhiqiang likes to wear? Do you know how much he drinks to get drunk? Do you know what medicine he should take if he gets drunk and has a headache the next day? Do you know all this? You know what? ”

"I don't know, why do I want to know this?" In fact, after hearing Gao Lanna's words, Cuckoo already had a faint guess in her heart, thinking that she might have mistaken herself for a rival in love, but she didn't plan to explain this misunderstanding immediately.

"Yes, yes, yes! You're pretty! So you're amazing! You think that with such a face, you can fascinate Leng Zhiqiang so much that you can't find the north, right? I tell you, don't dream! You're not the first woman who, relying on being better looking than me, came to me to show off to me! Gao Lanna glared at the cuckoo in disgust, "I tell you, you won't last long!" Leng Zhiqiang is a temporary novelty for women like you, and when you get tired of it for a while, he won't take care of you! I'll leave it here, and you can look back and see if I'm right! I've been with Leng Zhiqiang for so many years, I know him too well! What he needs is a woman who can wait for him silently, accompany him, and take care of him! I can do all of this, and none of you can do it! So no matter how you vixens hook up with him, when he's tired of it, he'll still come back to me! I'm the one who can stay with him until the end, so don't dream before it's too late! ”
